Subject: Re: [RFC] Slab: Enforce clean node lists per zone, add policy support and fallback
Date: Tue, 8 Aug 2006 11:29:58 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060808112958.12b71fb4.pj@sgi.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0608080951240.27620@schroedinger.engr.sgi.com>

Rather than special casing __cache_alloc_node() to handle the
fallback to other nodes when __GFP_THISNODE was -not- set, it might be
clearer to go the custom, single node zonelist (MPOL_BIND-like?)
approach, with no __GFP_THISNODE flag, for the few calls that do
require exact node placement.
